What command will display the group names and GIDs to which a user belongs? (Provide only the command name with or without path information)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Theidcommand will display the user ID (uid), the primary group ID (gid), and the supplementary groups (groups) of a user. The output will show the names and the numerical IDs of the groups. For example:

id linuxize

The command will show the user ID (uid), the user's primary group (gid), and the user's secondary groups (groups)

uid=1001(linuxize) gid=1001(linuxize) groups=1001(linuxize),27(sudo)

To print only the names instead of the numbers use the-noption.

id -nG linuxize

The command will show only the names of the groups

linuxize sudo

Theidcommand is part of the GNU coreutils package and is available on all Linux systems. The full path of the command is/usr/bin/id.Reference:

id(1) - Linux manual page

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know there's a command to display group information, but I can't recall the exact syntax off the top of my head. I'll have to think it through carefully.

The question is asking for just the command name, so I'll go with `id` since that seems to be the right command to use.

Okay, I remember learning about this in class. I believe the correct command is `id -Gn` to show the group names and GIDs.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. I'll need to double-check the syntax for the `id` command to make sure it includes the group information.

If `idusrbinid` was a real command, I'm pretty sure it would have been mentioned in the man pages. `id` is the way to go.
